Greetings All,
What I failed to include in my post yesterday was that my son was getting 3,800 fps from 8208 with the 55 grain projectile in his 26 inch barrel and a max load from Hodgdons data. This is much in line with Tech,s results above. For the record Benchmark 8208 and IMR 8208 XBR are the same powder made in Australia. IMR 8208 XBR was introduced first by Hodgdons for marketing reasons as has happened in the past with their ADI sourced powders.
Regards Grandpamac.
